Dyadrine, Synthesis Amalgam
Legendary Artifact Creature — Construct
Trample
Dyadrine enters with a number of +1/+1 counters on it equal to the amount of mana spent to cast it.
Whenever you attack, you may remove a +1/+1 counter from each of two creatures you control. If you do, draw a card and create a 2/2 colorless Robot artifact creature token.

Rulings

Dyadrine’s second ability cares about the amount of mana that was actually paid to cast Dyadrine. Any effects that increase or decrease the cost to cast it (including the “commander tax” in a Commander game) will also be taken into account.
- 2025-07-25
If a copy of Dyadrine is created on the stack, no mana was spent to cast the copy. The amount of mana spent to cast the original spell is not copied.
- 2025-07-25
If an effect allows you to cast Dyadrine without paying its mana cost, X will be 0.
- 2025-07-25
If an effect requires you to pay some amount of mana to prevent Dyadrine from being countered, as Divert Disaster does, that mana wasn’t spent to cast Dyadrine and will not be taken into account for Dyadrine’s second ability.
